    16 in Atlanta 1994. Shaped my musical tastes. Kind of high expectations for concerts after that show.

    I was 18, it was the Berlin 1996 show. I was so glad I got tickets and my parents allowed me to go there :D
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    I will never forget listening to the radio here in St. Louis one day and they were offering tickets to a certain caller for Soldier Field '95. My brother and I (then 10 and 12) tried our hardest to be that special caller for about an hour. How we were going to get to Chicago and where we were going to stay didn't matter at that point... we just wanted to go! Sadly, we didn't win the contest but were fortunate enough to see them when they rolled into town in 2000. My life changed that night and I've been a huge fan ever since.

    I was 19 when I seen them in Cincinnati in 2000. My mom would never let me go to concerts when I was still living with her so that was my first chance to see them.

    I wanted to see them at Lolla in '92, but I was still in high school and my mom wouldn't let me go to shows either..finally got to see them in '96....when I was 21 :D
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....
